On the bubble, Louisville can lose at UConn, but the Cardinals have to be competitive. Marquette on the verge of a big OT win at Seton Hall.
Anyone in the country win three straight OT games (all on the road?)?!? Marquette has to get some kind of award for that.
both those from Joe himself.
anyone pleased with the love we are now getting?
Absolutely pleased! It' good to know that the toughness of this team is not going unnoticed at the national level.
I got to believe the three OT, back to back, road victories -- the consistent competitiveness game in game out all season has to be worth something to the NCAA Selection Committee. The Tournament has to have a place for an undersized, undermanned team that can achieve what Marquette has achieved this season. It is mind boggling to me.
They are THE Road Warriors.

+1 - It would be a disgrace for MU to NOT get in the tournament at this point. I say that even if MU were to lose the next 2 home games. Crazy as it sounds, when does Georgetown need to be looked at as a Bubble Team? Granted they beat Duke...but..losses to MU, Notre Dame, Rutgers, South Florida...and they basically have NO good road wins.

East coast bias, but the loss to ND will probably get them a lot closer.
Gtown is struggling but they are definitly a tourney team, they can play with anyone with their starting 5. Pulling for them this week against WVU whenever that game is(havnt looked yet)
my guess is that as it stands today Georgetown is about a 5 seed.
I think they have 8 wins against teams with a top 50 rpi. @ Pitt is probably their biggest road win, but a win against Butler in NYC plus home wins against Duke, Villanova and Temple also will help. Also the most difficult schedule in the country.
win at West Virginia and home against Cincinnati and they possibly could even improve. A couple more losses and they will drop down 3-4 lines in their seeding.
Georgetown also has a real nice game against Old Dominion
